I don't care if you'll admit it or not, but there's a sense of sophistication when you have a glass of red on your table. I am not traditionally a wine drinker. In fact it's taken me a long time to warm to the idea of a drop of red. White? No problem, but Red never quite sat right when I drank it. This was until Suresh introduced me to a drop he really enjoyed. I think it was Church Block, but unable to find this, I posted on Facebook asking for suggestions for a good wine.
An old high-school friend, who coincidentally runs a Wine Blog over at Primary Aromas, was very forthcoming with the suggestion of the above Blue Pyrenees Shiraz. It's pretty much exactly what I was looking for, easy to drink and not at all as harsh as some I've tested over the last few weeks.
Oh, and that sophistication? Yep, it kinda loses some points as I sip the wine while blasting at Tanks in Bad Company 2.
